    Blocking alpha-synuclein propagation with perampanel

    Dr. Norihito Uemura joins Prof. Tiago Outeiro to discuss perampanel, an AMPA receptor antagonist, and how it has been shown to block alpha-synuclein propagation and neurodegeneration in a mouse model of Lewy body disease. Dr. Uemura explains the mechanistic findings of transsynaptic propagation and the study limitations pertaining to mouse behavior. They also discuss perampanel’s established therapeutic ranges in epilepsy, review limited prior Parkinson’s data, and outline next steps including a potential clinical trial in Parkinson’s disease patients.

    New data to reframe the risks of DBS surgery for patients and providers

    Myths and misconceptions related to the surgical risks of deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedures remain common despite many years of evidence demonstrating its relative safety. This leads to both patient and provider fear in referring eligible patients for consideration of a potentially life-altering therapy for symptom management in many movement disorders. Dr. Mitra Afshari speaks to functional neurosurgeon, Dr. Chengyuan Wu, about a recent large retrospective study he conducted comparing risks of DBS surgery to other common elective surgeries. They also bring in the perspective of DBS specialist, Dr. Delaram Safarpour, who recently published expert consensus recommendations for referral of Parkinson’s disease patients for DBS. Listen in on the lively discussion of how we can reframe this conversation with our patients and colleagues. Read the retrospective study. Read the expert consensus recommendations.

    Prodromal autonomic dysfunction in Lewy body diseases

    Prodromal autonomic dysfunction has emerged as an important area of research in understanding Lewy body diseases, including Parkinson's disease, and dementia with Lewy bodies. Dr. Michelle Matarazzo sits down with three experts in the field, Dr. Abhimanyu Mahajan, Dr. Alison Yarnall, and Dr. David Goldstein to discuss the current evidence behind various disturbances and how they may precede classic motor and cognitive symptoms, such as cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, urinary, and thermoregulatory disturbances. Together they discuss how these early non-motor manifestations may be considered integral features of the disease process. Read the related Scientific Issue Discussion on this topic.
